DILLON, NJ. T., March l5.-The stock men
in the Red Rock region are making bitter
complaints because the Indians OF the I4emhi
reservation have learned q trick which is re-
ducng the profits OF cattle raising in that
region almost as much as a severe winter.
The red men made the discovery that
cattle were prone to wander onto the railroad
track and bo killed and they also perceived
that tho carcnsses were carefully preserved
and taken away Being out Of meat most Of
the time. the gentle savage, scattered himself
along tic track for many miles. and as soon as
q steer was tossed to one side by the lOcomo-
tive. he fastened rope to the carcass and
dragged 1t of. Tho railroad company has
made 1t a practice to indemnify the owners for
all the cattle killed on the track, and II has found
thnt policy cheaper than building fences.
The Indians saw that cattle frequently met
charged with fseilitating ihc casualties by
driving a steer OF two into the tracks.
Tho cattle men began to wonder why SO
many carcasses were found along the track,
and having set a watch they discovered that the
savage was living high ut their expense an

that tho agent nj Lemhi keep his ingenious
